While I am writing this 7 out of 10 of the top 10 pred on pc are from pad. This is the exact picture of how the aim assist is strong. The smaller share has the bigger share of top position, this is just evidence!
Aim assist needs to be balanced! We simply can not challenge something that is much faster than human timing reaction
@BlairNines @arjaeger Oh I can easily believe that mastering M/KB requires more skill. It's this BS about dominating with a controller the first time you pick one up or beaming anyone with the help of Aim Assist. Well maybe if your sensitivity is on 3 but these exaggerated tales are hard to swallow unless you already side with with PC.
my sense is 1.5.
The number of times I've been 1-clipped close range by a level 20 with a controller is unbelievable. I've got damn good movement, there is no way such a new player should even touch me.
You also have to factor that the size of the screen makes aiming so much easier. the size of the screen matters, the level of precision and accuracy required on a small screen is much greater.
Of course I side with PC. The playing field should be even. M&K players have a 'handicap' and it needs to be fixed.
@Popa2caps A big part of the disagreement is the lack of understanding of how the other side plays. I have no idea how well the average PC player performs at close range so I can't be sure how big of an advantage Aim Assist gives.
@arjaeger I'm unaware of how high PC sense goes but it maxes out at 10 for console. I play on a 7 and consider 3 to be pretty low. I miss a number of my shots at close range and that's normally due to me dragging my gun off target while trying to track my opponent.
I have seen players with low sensitivity melt players who make small quick movements so maybe that helps? Low sensitivity/high deadzone may prevent the player from dragging himself off target and allow Aim Assist to have a stronger effect? Dunno since thats never discussed.
I'm also skeptical of a PC player's claim of good movement at close range after the last video I saw. He just gently wiggled left and right as if that should do something. That may actually be useful in average PC lobbies due to how M/Kb works but it's a joke compared to the average bob and weave strafes I see Wraith use.
Here is my personal experience.
1) I was able to get my aim on target fast, but staying on target was quite difficult. Recoil, muzzle flash, opponent crouching and/ or moving suddenly.
Most of those things I don't have to worry about when using my controller at all. Basically I had to mentally be focused while using a mouse & keyboard as every step of the way matters, there is no downtime. On the controller I could be mentally distracted most of the match, but still be fine ingame.
2) Close range was odd on the mouse & keyboard as the tracking changed so suddenly. On a controller it's super easy to follow, but mouse & keyboard is another thing.
3) Another issue is the keyboard, I dislike it. It's super hard for me coming from years of controller to the input device to be honest. Using 4 keys over an analog stick is tough, I missed it every step of the way.
@BlairNinesNo Mnk doesnt deserve anything... it already is better for quick turning and aiming.
What you say is totally false, controller players are NOT automatically good at the game; proof is consoles players aim bad and PC players aim good. On console I quite easily hit Diamond last season but when I got on a PC server I was lasered in Platinum before I hit Diamond like I am not in Diamond console lobby. So I avoid PC lobbys as the plague because they shoot better even tough I have like 10 000 hours of controller gameplay. And don't tell me it's because console don't have same fps I tried PC on controller and same thing would happen: all PC players were aiming and moving better!!!
There is no free one-clip and the game doesnt aim for you this is BS. Aim assist help follow movement but you still have to aim or you are shooting besides the player.
Reality is Mouse players get Free Aim Free Hits.
I did try Mouse on PC and my aim was good automatically I did not have to pratice for thousands of hours but on a controller with a tiny joystick Aim is way harder.
F u ck crossplay !!! Rollers should play only with other rollers !!!
By chance was this reddit study that was taken down and removed because the statistics and/ or methods to reproduce them were showing odd results?
